Very cheap ass in deed Ford!

i also found it kinda odd that 2013 is a "downgrade" from 2012 in those aspects.. especially when the garage door remote is still listed as a standard option on their site (but not actually available in the vehicles)!

That's why I bought a 2012 in December of 2012.

Very cheap of Ford to not include things that every other maker does include.

I should probably pop my hood sometime and look under it

When I used to do the work myself, I agreed that the cover would be in the way.

Now that I have the dealer maintenace package, and don't have to do the work anymore, I think it looks great!

I find this funny because cleaning my garage I found engine covers for my last two cars on one of the shelves. I find they get in the way

For me I like the look having the cover. Just makes the engine bay look cleaner to me. And since the cover has insulation, it slightly reduces engine noise entering the cabin.

What are the pros and cons of the cover? I kind of like the look without.
